And he shewed us how he had seen an angel in his house, which stood and said unto him, Send men to Joppa, and call for Simon, whose surname is Peter;
Who shall tell thee words, THEREBY THOU AND ALL THY HOUSE SHALL BE SAVED(Acts.11:13-14)
So Cornelius was saved when he went to Peter to get the words so he could get saved?
I can see Woody that you have nothing more to contribute to any discussion. Your view of Eph.2:8 doesn't stand up to anything.
Even Calvin rejected your idea of 'faith' being a gift
Rom.5:2 explains Eph.2:8
by whom also we have ACCESS BY FAITH INTO THIS GRACE(you see 'grace' is the entire plan of salvation, and we have access to that plan THROUGH faith) just like it says in Eph.2:8)
Jn.3:3? That is explained by Jn.3:15,18-19!
Clearly, you have run out of answers and can now only just repeat your proof texts, all the while crying how you are too deep to be understood!
Even so, come Lord Jesus
How come you can't seem to understand a word that I say.
